Well, after a long pause we decided to continue our campaign (I've finished a little shipbuilding project and wanted to give my new toy a field test). We used "October Hammer" this time - being a pure beer&pretzel game it gave us a quick and fun result (though, we decided to add some homerules to it next time).

Red command in Astrakhan didn't know about a crushing defeat near Dushak and ordered its agent in a fort near Krasnovodsk to start a mutiny.

Sailors reach the fort and inflict serious losses to whites from relief column, but after two turns of heavy firefight they are also battered and decide to retreat back to the ship. Battle for the fort rages further...
Indian lancers furiously charge the thin red line...

Reds mount one final assault at the loyalists in the fort and have some success.
Unfortunately to them, all their efforts were fruitless. They suffered too many casualties and whites managed to outflank main red defensive lines. Red commander ordered all remaining troops to embark and leave the place. In the last exchange of fire a ship took a direct hit under the waterline and only the skill of crew and their captain saved the operation from total fiasco...
